V-1 Devarim: Final Words of Moses
Devarim opens the last book of the Torah with "these are the words that Moses spoke..." In the other four books of the Torah, the Israelites are instructed by the words of God through Moses's mouth; but in Devarim, Moses addresses the community of Israel directly. Deuteronomy is a Mosaic repetition of the laws given in Exodus 19-23. Deuteronomy is is associated with the "lost scroll" that was publicly presented with the recostruction of the Temple after the Exile (2 Kings 22:8) and the reforms of Josiah (ca 622) who restricted sacrifice to Jerusalem and removed foreign cult elements from the worship. There is debate regarding the age of the scroll's origin. Devarim opens at the eve of Moses's death and contains a long narrative broken up into speeches covering the nation's history, travels, laws and the importance of loyalty to God. Moses opens his valedictory address with a rebuke regarding the past transgressions of Israel, recalling the disastrous mission of the spies, blaming the children of Israel for his inbility to enter the Promised Land and his death on the plains of Moab.

What would Moses say?
The recent drive to push religion into the public school system has been argued mainly on three points: 1) Today's children lack morals and character; 2) The founders were God-fearing men and God is mentioned in the United States Constitution; 3) It will stop school violence. All three are at best misdirected and at worst false. After Congress passed a bill last June allowing schools to post the Ten Commandments on school property the social conservatives shouted "Hurrah! Now these heathens will get some religion!"

IV-8 Pinchas: Follow The Leader
At the end of Parasha Balak, the Israelites become involved in pagan sexual worship of Baal Peor with a little help from Bilaam. Since he can't curse them, he corrupts them. Opening Pinchus, Pinchus nails Zimri, a Simeonite with Cozbi, a Midianite woman, having sex in public with one javelin toss. A plague descends upon the Israelites as punishment for idolatrous worship. A second census is taken on anticipation of entering the Promised Land. Zelophehad, a descendent of Menasseh had five daughters and no sons. They petition Moses for the inheritance of land. The women win. Moses is called up Mount Abarim to confront his death. He asks God to know his successor. Joshua is deputized. The parasha closes with record of sacrifices and festivals.

II-6 Mishpatim The Value of Life:
The Ten Commandments are concerned with man's relationship with God and man's relationship with fellow man. Mishpatim contains social laws regarding compensation for loss: inflicted loss on personal properties, damages caused by public hazards and neglect; damages inflicted by the person himself and failure to contain or restrict potential damage. Mishpatim includes social, religious, financial, criminal and family laws. Interpretation of Mishpatim is in the Talmud Tractate, Nizikin, divided into Bava Kamma, Bava Metzria and Bava Batra. The heart of the law is to live in harmony with one's fellow man.

III-2 Tzav Keep the Fire going
In Vayikra, Moses addresses the general public regarding sacrifices: what and how sacrifices should be made, but in Tzav, the audience is restricted to the priests, regarding the particularities of sacrifice. Moreover, the instruction of sacrifice seems countered by the prophets whon rail against empty ritual. Tzav frequently falls on Shabbat HaGadol, the last shabbat before Pesach when the haftorah is read from Malachi regarding God's enduring love for Israel and the warning of final judgment and messianic age heralded by the return of Elijah. Tzav reiterates the importance of maintaining the perpetual fire on the altar which is interpreted as man's need of sustaining a passion for God's commandments and maintaining faith in God. Instructions on clearing the ashes from the altar and the institution of Aaron and his sons for the priesthood fall within the parasha.

IV-1 Bamidbar ONE OF A THOUSAND
In preparation for leaving Mt Sinai, the male congregation over twenty years is counted once more. Midrash explains this tally was for military purposes as the Israelites would be open to attack in foreign territory. The Levites are not included for two reasons: dedicated as priests to God, they are defenders of the Mishkan, therefore exempt and also, unlike other Israelites, they are counted from the 31st day after birth. Inclusion would skew the statistics. Traditionally, the first and second aliyot are given to a Kohen and Levi for torah reading in the synagogue. Forbidden to accrue personal wealth, the Levites inherited no land but they were designated 48 cities. Organized under their banners, the tribes were positioned around the Mishkan according to Jacob's blessing and his burial procession closing Bereshit / Genesis.

IV-3 Beha'aloscha KINDLING SOULS
Bela'aloscha includes instructions regarding the Menorah and priestly duties for the Levites, and for Pesach Shaynie, Second Pesach, one month after Pesach. The tribes of Israel move with the Pillar of Clouds. When it rests, they rest, and when it moves, they follow. This at times causes some iconveniences as there is no pre-arranged travel itinerary and they unpack to pack back up or remain in a desolate place longer than they desire. The people complain about a steady diet of manna and demand meat, so they receive quail until they gorge themselves. Moses invites Jethro to remain with them and enter the promised land, but he declines. The seventy elders/leaders are chosen and the Sanhedrin established. At the end of the section, Miriam comments about her brother Moses to Aaron and is punished for Lashon Hara with tzaaras and is exiled outside the camp for a week.

II-10 Vayakhel From the Heart
The Mishkan making is resumed after the Golden Calf Event, often interpreted as a form of atonement for the sin of idolatry. It opens with an exhortation for keeping the Shabbat, admonishing the Israelites to do the work in six days, but on the seventh day, rest. Regardless of how elaborate or monumental a project, limitations need to be set before beginning. Work in life is never completed, therefore God warns us to make space and time sacred for His Presence. Belalzel and Oholiab are the master craftsman ioverseeing the projects. Detailed activities of the women are related, emphasizing the importance of each person and individual gifts within the community. No gift is too small for the eyes of the beloved. Just as a fiancee seeks to find favor in her beau, we should seek to please God, the lover of all mankind. We should beautify our lives to attract the pleasure of His gaze.
